I added to my todo list.

When in, for example, the list of projects, and it's longer than one screen, and I scroll down and make say a multiple selection, it often jumps back to the top for some reason.

That might happen when you already have as selection at the top of the page.

It should work, but it does not, added to my list.

A BOINC process is linked to a CPU, you could have 32 tasks on 2 CPU's.

Thanks all, I finally get some input. That helps a lot in resolving issues.

Keep on adding, I will resolve all issues eventually.
For now I'm doing something entirely different.

32 is as far as I can go.
Above 32 I have to rewrite the driver and that's very expensive, probably in the thousands of dollars.
Microsoft made it much more difficult to add drivers.

OK What works works. 

V 2.2 Added Context menu, easier than expected and it is indeed a better way.

OK added to my git issue list.
5) Use Control click to add and remove selected items.

What I personally like to do is start another BOINC instance and assign work to 1 or 2 CPU.
Or what I do in Windows use WSL to start another BOINC instance.

If I try to abort a whole bunch of task it doesn't seem to work any sugestions where to look.

Strange, not really.
Local or remote machine?

I'd assumed the task itself reported a time, and Boinc or Boinctasks divided the processing time by the wall time.  So you're saying Boinc or Boinctasks receives a % from the OS (like you see in task manager), and uses that along with the time the task has run for, to calculate the processing time?  Something somewhere (not in the OS) must be then dividing by the number of cores in avg_ncpus, but it's using an integer and assumed nobody would ever set fractional cores.  Under 1 core is odd I admit, but it's feasible to set say 6.5 cores in an 8 core task which uses an average below what it's capable of.

I think tasks are assigned to any CPU not a fixed one and may even transfer to another CPU.
A 24 core machine can and will run way more than 27 tasks.....
But the more tasks you run the more the CPU has to switch between tasks making things less efficient.

2.1 should resolve most problems.
The header width adjust is still open. https://github.com/efmer/boinctasks-js/issues
Tip: To adjust the header, make all other rows smaller.

I wonder if <avg_ncpus>0.7</avg_ncpus> does anything besides showing on the screen.
BoincTasks shows the actual run % reported by the OS to the Boinc Client -> BoincTasks.
70 min out of 100 min = 70% 100 min out of 100 min = 100%.
0.7 = expected run time 70%.
